Talent High Eagle Point Host Friday Talent Talent High school makes its 1956 Oregon football bow Friday under new rnarh Dick Thorpe by entertaining Eagle Point in a night struggle. But, contrary to previous re ports, it won't be the first game of the season for the Bulldogs. They made a spur of the moment trip to Mt. Shasta, Calif., last week for an unpublicized game. Talent lost 22 to 7, after leading at half time. , Talent has 12 lettermen back this year and boasts some good weight but last night was the first night Thorpe has had enough of his players on hand for a real scrimmage. Rice Injured Possible starters for the Bull dogs are Allen King and Mel Wallace, ends. Bob Messenger and Dick Bradford, tackles, Jim Spangler and Frank Tycksen, guards, Terry Hazelton, center, and Ron Weinhold, Buzz Heard. Phil Combs and Fred Helm, backs. King is the non-letterman in the group. Other monogram men are Herman Cannon, tackle, and Jerry Rice, back. Rice has a bad knee. Eagle Point has been working on its passing attack this week and girding its defense to be "ready for anything." For start ers coach Stan Smith may call on Wayne Christian and Gary Kaiser, ends, Ron Nelson and Dean Tibbitts, tackles; Mike Kaiser and Jim Bunker, guards. Larry Dodenhoff, center, and Jack Greb, Errol Tresham, Doug Chamberlain and Norm Hooper, backs. Crater Scuffled Redmond At Central Point Friday Central Point Crater High school's Comets have been per fecting their passing attack this j week as they ready for the Fri j day night scramble here with Redmond football contingent. Coach Leonard Warren said that the Comet forces were hop ing for good weather for an aerial offrnsive. The Crater gang also has done some attack polish ing in anticipation of a special defence the Panthers threw at Prineville last week. Defensively the Comets are be ing primed to halt the strong "inside" assault of the central Oregonians. The Panthers have appeared so far to be primarily a ground team with Schultz. a 195-pound fullback the big MedforivvTribune Gunderson, Quast Score Am Verdicts Indianapolis, Ind. (U.P.)

Ashland, Phoenix Tangle In Gridiron Engagement Red Hats To Signify Care, Sportsmanship Red Hat Days in Oregon will begin on Friday, Sept. 21. Hunters throughout the state are being asked to wear red hats and to sign the Red Hat Days pledge tomorrow. The day's observance will kick-off an educational program among hunters which will last through out the season. Sponsored again by many statewide organizations concern ed with landowner-sportsmen relations, the program is a con tinuation of the one started suc cessfully in Oregon last year. Signers of the pledge will promise care with both fire and firearms, observance of all laws and respect for the rights and property of others. Objective of the pledge is to prevent serious damage to the state's timber re sources, to prevent hunter deaths, to eradicate the "game hog" problem and to eliminate the vandalism which has led owners to close their lands to hunters. Responsibility The program will point up that, while hunting is a privi lege, it also carries responsibil ity, that, if nimrods in the west are to continue without regimen tation in the pursiuit of game they must not needlessly kill their fellowmen, must not shoot locks off gates, kill farmers' live stock, start range and forest fires and must not trespass on pri vate property.

It will stand for cooperation be tween hunters and ranchers and as a badge for those hunters working for keen sportsmanship afield. Publicity materials, including buttons and pledge cards are similar to those used last year. The card has been redesigned for billfold use. Eldon Corthell, Ashland, is Jackson county chairman of the governor's Red Hat Days com mittee. Phoenix A siege of injuries has limited Phoenix High school grid practices this week as the Pirates look to their Friday night game here against the Ashland Grizzlies. The encounter is being viewed in both Ashland and Phoenix as a scrap which could go either way. Coach Jack Woodward said that the Pirates bowed to both injuries and weather yesterday and held a light workout in the gymnasium. The Phoenix drills have been stressing defense and with it, of course, tackling. The home club is hoping for a dry field for the operation of its fast backfield. Pirate aim will be to stop the running of Bob Davis. Mentor Al Simpson at Ash land is stressing fundamentals, particularly blocking and tackling and is encouraging harder running by his backs. Chances are that the Grizzlies will go back to the straight T after trying offensive variations. Definitely Out On the Phoenix squad guard Dale Haggard and back Fred Faytinger have knee injuries which will sideline them this Friday. On the doubtful list with leg injuries are defensive tackle Stan Zwam and quarterback Dennis James. Possibly starting for Phoenix will be Jim James and Pete Bohm, ends, Larry Kidwell and Jack Rinn, tackles, Delford Dean and Jim Waldron, guards, Ron Daugherty, center and Larry Blunt, Don Wallace, Jack Thompson and Dennis James or Jim Heath, quarterback. Sure to see lots of duty in the back field is Gary Simmonds, who is considered the best all-around player on the team. Others tick eted for lots of work are Zwam, if he's able, David Dahl, Marv. Frazier, Bill Clark 'and Archie Trott. Opening for Phoenix may be Jim Witt and Roy Gray, ends, Frank Conley and Jerry Stubble field, tackles, Tom Delsman and Jack Eberhart, guards, Dale Ol son, center and Mark Fitch, Al South, Ken Dye and Davis, backs. Ashland has managed to nip Phoenix by one TD in the past two seasons although the Pirates have outgained the Grizzlies. Phonix lost only to Ashland, 12 to 7, last year and tied Coquille for the district championship. Coquille got into slate quarter finals on its yardage edge. RID HAT DAYS begin HUNTERS RED HAT PLEDGE: be law abiding. respect rights and property of others, be careful with fire and firearms. Eugene, Ore. (U.P.) Coach Len Casanova isn't sure what his Colorado Attack Enigma To Ducks University of Oregon ducks should be ready for when they tangle with Colorad this Sat urday. "Last year, Colorado stayed pretty close to the straight single wing," Casanova said. "Running from the single wing T and winged T now, they can just about do anything. What they can do best and what they will concentrate on is hard to figure out." Sports Broadcasts Radio station KYJC will broadcast three programs this evening heralding the 1956 season for Pacific Coast con ference football clubs. The Len Casanova show will come at 7 p.m. and the Tommy Pro thro show at 7:15 p.m. At 7:30 p.m. the Pacific Coast Confer ence Kick-off will present very coach of the circuit.

ON RAIDER CREW Jack Greg ory, above, is a guard on the Southern Oregon college foot ball squad which will see its first 195(3 service Saturday night on the Medford high field against Humboldt State college. Gregory was a three-year letter man for the Medford Black Tor nado and an all-conference play er before enrolling at the Ash land college this fall. The Hum boldt aggregation with its T for mation looms strong after its victory last week over Moffatt Air Force base but Coach Al Akins and his gang feel that they'll be able to fight on even terms with the Lumberjacks. It will be the first Southern Ore gon game in a good number of years on the Medford grass. - (Landis Shangle photo). Millich Leaves Washington Club Seattle, Wash. (U.R) Don Millich, a promising sophomore halfback, quit the University of Washington football team with out reason Wednesday and re turned to his home at Aberdeen, Wash. Millich, who scored five touchdowns during an intra squad tangle last week, was held in high regard by Coach Darrell Royal, who said the boy could have developed into "a ranking coast conference back." By ALEX KAHN Los Angeles (U.P.) Coach Jess Hill today expressed the attitude of University of South ern California football players coaches and alumni when he said "Whoever is going to the Rose Bowl is going to have to beat us." Barred from the conference championship and a bowl bid by action of the Pacific Coast Con ference, Southern California has set as its goal "the mathematical championship" first in the standings at the close of the sea son. "This is a dedicated football team dedicated to the princi ple that all men are created equal," Hill says. "The recent action of the conference seems to tend to refute that." The usually pleasant-spoken Hill has difficulty in hiding a trace of bitterness in discussing his team's prospects, for 1956 marks his final season as head football coach prior to stepping up to athletic director. This was to have been his big year. Still Tough But under the conference ban for illegal aid, back Jan Arnett and a dozen others are limited to five games. Even with that han dicap, only Stanford appears stronger than Southern Cali fornia this year. Hill has a dream backfield which also includes hard-charging C. R. Roberts, who could be the West's top fullback and such powerful performers as quarter backs Frank Hall and Ellsworth Kissinger, and halfbacks Don Hickman, Ernie Zampese, Doug Kranz, Tony Ortega and Jim Decker. If the Trojans have any great weakness it is at guard where only Laird Willott is a veteran and he's limited to five games. The Trojans lost such outstand ing guards as Orlando Ferrante, George Galli and John Miller from last year. But Ben Lardiz- abal had some experience and an eager gaf, g of sophs and re serves may fill the gap. Stars Gone At ends, despite the loss of such stars as Leon Clarke and Chuck Griffith, the Trojans have Chuck Leimbach, Lindsy Hubby and Dick Dorsey. The tackle spot is well filled by Fabian Abram, George Belotti, Dick Enright and Ron Fletcher, al though all are limited to five games. At center Karl Rubke and sophomore Ken Antle are able performers. "We have a group of boys who are eager to go all-out for vic tory. It is a battle for survival of the fittest, and we might be the fittest this year," Hill adds. In addition to seven confer ence games, the Trojans meet Texas, Wisconsin and Notre Dame. But the emphasis is on the conference slate and the "mathematical title" for Troy this year. The schedule: Sept. 22 at Texas; Sept. 28 Oregon State; Oct. 6 at Wisconsin; Oct. 20 Washington; Oct. 27 at Stan ford; Nov. 3 at Washington State; Nov. 10 California; Nov. 17 at Oregon; Nov. 24 UCLA; Dec. 1 Notre Dame.

Earnel Durden, one of the two top alternates at wingback, has pulled a thigh muscle and is on the doubtful side for the con test. The other top alternate at wingback.
